As a screenwriter, Quinn Roberts used to know how to finish a story, but now he’s not sure where the story of his life is going. His junior year of high school isn’t happening since he stopped going to school after winter break. Now so much time has passed that he needs a new air conditioner. He hasn’t heard from anyone in months, though that might be because he hasn’t turned his phone on since that day in December. Only his therapist and the police know why. Then one day, his friend Geoff turns up determined to get Quinn out of the house and back into his story. It’s a tragedy and also a hilarious comedy involving first romance with a hot college guy, mediocre haircuts, secrets revealed, and the reality of grief. (Pennsylvania Young Reader’s Choice Award 2017-2018)
